Saw it today and enjoyed it. Visually it's absolutely stunning, and while there's some very interesting sci-fi concepts I agree that the overall plot is very unoriginal. Basically Last of the Mohicans/Dances With Wolves/Last Samurai in space. The friend I saw it with argued that it's a "classic" story and it works, so it's OK to retell it in a new way, but I'd have liked a bit more originality beyond the setting.

All that said, I'd like to see it again, in 3-D again, at an Imax cinema if possible this time!
